Overview
Father Joseph is on a secret mission for Richelieu. The King of Sweden, Gustavus Adolphus, receives financial support for his struggle against the Emperor, and Wallenstein is promised the throne of Bohemia. Richelieu, who had long sought to weaken the supremacy of the Habsburgs, now faces his toughest confrontation yet with Spain. The capture of the Elector of Trier, who was under French protection, forces France to rise to the challenge. Thus France enters the Thirty Years’ War.
